bodhiyoga's blog

Bodhiyoga "Mindfulness Yoga" draws strongly from the teachings on "metta" or loving kindness and "sati" or mindfulness - especially as outlined in the Satipatthana Sutta - ideas and practices which come from the earliest strata of the Buddha's teaching as recorded in the Pali Canon.

I love going on retreat. I make sure I go on retreat at least once a year to keep my mind and body in check. As such, it kinda surprised me when I turned into Grumpy McGrumpster from the onset. Even before I had landed in Spain I was grumpy. No, actually, even before I had boarded the plane at Birmingham I was grumpy. A gaggle of girls were also boarding my flight full of giggles and fun times ahead on their journey to sun, sand, sea and booze. I couldn't help wanting them to shutup and let me be grumpy in peace.

ACCOUNT OF HOW MY TEACHING IS ALIGNED WITH THE PRINCIPLES OF SATYA, AHIMSA AND SVADHYAYA, I.E. HOW IT IS SAFE, GROUNDED IN MY PRACTICE AND MY STUDENTS’ PRACTICE, AND HOW IT IS TRUTHFUL. 

Fantastic retreat which gives a good grounding in mindfulness and mindfulness based yoga. The retreat offers the right level of challenge versus support and I totally trusted Sudaka and Sadhita and their friendly approach. Absolutely glorious. Gaelle Tuffigo, London, U.K.
